you need some more on the wall with the amps, maybe some inserts that light up or something, it's a little plain. I like the DD gauges.

looking good so far.

Sunset, I loudly second Skippy's post above. Utterly impressive. Love the way you used a digital dash from a 57 Chevy.
Again, are you doing all this yourself? If so, you have the energy level of at least 25 of me.

Thanks for the input. Most of the work has been done in my garage with help from friends. The dash was done at a show that Bob Grant was at it took abou 7 hours. The streeing column was the hardest and the digital gauges to get them to work. Someone asked about the amps they do have lighting behind them I will take pics tonight and post them. The next thing I need to do is the door panels. I have changed the inside handles and shaved the door locks on the inside and shaved the arm rests and put power windows in and shaved them and put the controls in the console. I will post a pisture of the doors here in a few.

There was a question earlier about the dash what Bob Grant asked me to do is get the old dash out and the streeing working and meet him at a truck show in bakersfield and he would bring down his equipment if I help we would show the people at the event how to build a dash.
